BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) is an important pathogen in transplant recipients. We report four draft BKPyV genomes, three of BKPyV genotype I (subtype I-b2) (AUS-105, AUS-106, and AUS-108) and one of genotype II (AUS-107). These draft genomes were identified in longitudinal urine samples collected from a single hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipient.

Patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant are at risk for significant morbidity and mortality throughout their treatment course. The aim of this evidence-based practice project was to determine if the use of a palliative care trigger tool impacted the number of palliative care consults and/or the early integration of palliative care services within the pediatric hematopoietic stem cell transplant patient population. A trigger tool was developed to identify patients at highest risk for stem cell transplant-associated morbidity and mortality.

However, the prognostic significance of concurrent molecular abnormalities and clinical features in NPM1-mutated AML remains to be fully elucidated.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 73 adult AML patients with NPM1 mutations.

Introduction: Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a promising treatment option for hematological malignancies. Despite its curative potential, it faces clinical challenges, including relapse and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Systemic toxicity due to chemotherapy is a significant problem in patients with hematological malignancies.

Steroid-refractory gut acute graft-versus-host disease (SR-Gut-aGVHD) is the major cause of nonrelapse death after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. High numbers of donor-type IL-22+ T cells, IL-22-dependent dysbiosis, and loss of antiinflammatory CX3CR1hi mononuclear phagocytes (MNPs) play critical roles in SR-Gut-aGVHD pathogenesis. CEACAM1 on intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) is proposed to regulate bacterial translocation and subsequent immune responses in the intestine.

In bone marrow, cell numbers are balanced between production and loss. After chemotherapy, blood cell counts decrease initially but later recover as hematopoietic progenitor cells expand, although the mechanisms underlying this recovery are still unclear. We investigated the influence of red blood cells (RBCs) on hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) function during bone marrow recovery.
